The latest version of Chrome, 79 is now available, and it introduces a host of new
features, including enhanced security and better protection against phishing
scams.
The three
main features of Google chrome 79 updates are:
- Check or Change Your Passwords.
- Get a warning about suspicious sites.
- RenameDownloads (for Android).
The update
extends predictive phishing protection to all Chrome users, not just those who
have Sync switched on. What’s more, the new browser receives the latest
information on threats in real-time rather than every 30-minutes, because “some
phishing sites slip through the 30-minute window”.
To enable
this option, visit chrome://settings/syncSetup
and switch on ‘Make searches and
browsing better’.
Chrome 79
also features a built-in password checker that alerts you if one of your
username or passwords has been involved in a data breach.
You may also
want to turn on three new experimental Clipboard flags (search chrome://flags
for ‘Clipboard’).
These add a ‘Send
to’ option to Chrome’s context menu, making it easier to share content between
devices.
